LIKE RUM-DRUNK ANGELS
An entirely original retelling of the Aladdin story as an American western. ?"Cormac McCarthy meets Gabriel Garcia Marquez." - Winnipeg Free Press?
Francis Blackstone is a fourteen-year old gunslinger with a heart of gold. He's fallen for the governor's daughter and goes in search of the fortune that will allow him to marry her. With few prospects for immediate wealth in sight, Francis joins forces with the notorious gunslinger, Bob Temple. Together they form The Blackstone Temple Gang, an infamous group of gentleman train robbers who become a country-wide media sensation.
Set in the Wild West, this is an offbeat and magical literary work. Filled with big skies, daring shoot-outs, and blazing dialogue, it is an entirely original retelling of the Aladdin story as an American western.
